Chris Coyier and Dave Rupert join Adam and Jerod for a ShopTalk & Friends conversation on the viability of the web, making content, ads to support that content, CodePen’s future plans, books, side quests, and social networks devaluing links. ShopTalk & Friends

Safari isn’t any better with battery life. I feel like that needs to be shared more as it’s very strong folk tech wisdom that Chrome eats battery and Safari does not, which is apparently not true at all, and might be the opposite. But I don’t care too much about that. I have a first-gen […]

They broke out of a loosely wired cage door in the basement of the monkey house, but from there it seemed they didn’t have a plan — most hung out in a nearby canopy of trees as mesmerized onlookers watched Madison Magazine Who was in charge of that loosely wired cage door?

I’m certainly not above government criticism nor do I think lying for political gain is a new trick. I am bummed that a website needs to exist called Hurricane Rumor Response from FEMA in order to combat a barrage of lies accusing them of everything stealing donations to literally preventing aid. Hey, I’m not on […]
